Don't fear failing

Almost all of students have low self-esteem at high school where I work.
So they always talk about "I will not do it, because I can not do it."
They give up something before they try to do it. They have ever had few successful experience.
They are afraid of failing. If they would not try anything, their life will become nothing.
At that time I take part of a listener before encouraging them.
I want to know what causes. I guess what he only lost willingness or she has a bigger problem than this class or they are just lazy....
My handling will change depend on that states.
At any rate, I want them to try anything and have many experiences.

Dangerous Leader of Japan.

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe insist to do "Proactive pacifism." He puts it nicely.
Actually he want to use military power. I scare him, can't understand him.
Beyond that he say patriotism incite full auditory people," Japanese are great."I don't like it.
Worse than that almost all of young people are indifferent politics. They are brainwashed easily.
He can do it conveniently.Japanese people need to think about it seriously.
We should think, judge and decide about it by ourselves.
Now is a good time to do it. Although Japanese don't have a habit being independent, you have to change the behavior.

Studying English in Japan.

The Japanese government and CEO's some big companies are desperate to force studying English on young people.
They say we have to work globally, so it's inevitable to be able to make good use of English in any situations.
However it's ineffective. Why ?
Basically we absolutely don't need to use English in our daily life,except people who have jobs that need English.
In addition, the number of young people who study abroad is decreasing.
They don't want to go abroad. I hear from them often that they want to get mid-level job, being able to earn mid-level and having a mid-level marriage.
What is a mid-level marriage ?
Anyway they don't have any high hopes. They are called "Satori ageさとり世代” in Japan.
It means they have realized everything already.

The vase of strange shape.

This is a vase made of clay. These are put four ball on by on.
I wanted to make strange shape. Making things of clay is free.
You can make anything what you want.
How about to try one ?

A little item.

This is a Kappa かっぱ-shaped tooth pick holder made of pottery.
Kappa is fictional animal of Japan.
There is an old saying that Kappa eats cucumber and has plate on his/her head.
Kappa needs to wet the plate. And they have a bit mysterious atmosphere.
However, I have an adorable image of it.

Thinking Children Living in Fukushima.

I absolutely don't trust the Japanese government, especially these days.
They say that they can control the Fukushima nuclear power plant.
However, the actual state is too far from it.
A huge amount of water with radiation still has been spilling even now.
Nevertheless, they have a terrible plan to force-feed homegrown foods to children.
They decided to use local production for local consumption at Fukushima for school-provided lunches.
It's never safe to eat foods product around a nuclear plant.
They want to pretend that radiation doesn't exist in Fukushima.
Some mothers are against it, but they are looking coldly on others. There is strong group pressure.
The government treats the children as if they were guinea pigs.
How dare they do such things.
All of the people who have children and live in Fukushima should make claims about it. They don't need to accept it.
Why do the Japanese comply with the command of government obediently ?
It's complete nonsense to force suffering on the children.

I heard that no one lives in prohibited areas of Chernobyl.
Why doesn't the Japanese government prohibit living around the nuclear plant ?
They should provide or help find proper places of residence. The government has the liability and responsibility of the nuclear plant disaster.

A cat of still bank

This is a still bank made of pottery.
I put only 500 yen coin into it.
If it will be filled to the capacity, would I crash it ?
No, I don't want to break it.
So how can I take it out ?
I try to think about it until to be filled coins.
